We help you choose the right arm type and keep it operating safely and reliably. - New gate arm installation for new or upgraded entry points - Repair of damaged arms and mounting hardware - Upgrades for visibility, durability, and traffic flow - Replacement planning to reduce emergency downtime - Alignment and testing after service [Schedule a Consultation](https://cts.tech/schedule?hsLang=en) ![Good Gate Arm](https://cts.tech/hubfs/Good%20Gate%20Arm.png) ## Gates and maintenance FAQs Quick answers to common gate questions ### Do you offer preventative gate maintenance? Yes. We provide scheduled maintenance that includes cleaning, lubrication, tightening chains/belts (as applicable), inspections, and a short report with priorities. ### Can you support gate arms as well as operators? Yes. We support gate arm installation, repair, upgrades, and replacement to improve reliability and reduce downtime. ### Do you repair gate motors and mechanical hardware? CTS supports the technology side and can perform applicable maintenance tasks. If specialized mechanical repairs are needed, we coordinate with your gate vendor using clear scope and documented findings. ### Can you work with our existing gate vendor? Yes. We coordinate with your vendor to reduce delays and keep scope and ownership clear. ### Can you help with intermittent issues? Yes. We isolate dependencies like power, connectivity, safety devices, and controls to identify the root cause. ### What do you need from us to start? A short description of symptoms, frequency, and any recent changes (storms, power events, vendor work). Vendor names and service notes help if you have them. ## Stabilize your gate system and keep it that way.
